As anyone who listens to our podcast will know, I am a Mass Effect junkie and I look forward to every little piece of Mass Effect news I can get. This week (Tuesday US time) a new DLC (for the non-gamers is stands for Down Loadable Content) pack will be released, this time called the Equalizer Pack and it contains some new items for Shepherd.
So far, with the exception of Katsumi, I have been a little underwhealmed by the Mass Effect 2 DLC, for game of this calibre I would hope that some super DLC is still yet to come. I actually found myself getting bored during Firewalker. Anyway, below is the official Bioware description for this DLC:
Cerberus doesn’t just need a hero – they need a one-man army. That’s why the Equalizer Pack adds the Capacitor Helmet, Archon Visor, and Inferno Armor to Shepard’s armor locker. The Capacitor Helmet stores power for kinetic barriers, allowing Shepard’s shields to recharge faster. The Archon Visor manages omni-tools and biotic amps, reducing the recharge time of Shepard’s powers. The powered Inferno Armor speeds up Shepard’s movements and increases his tech and biotic power damage, additionally stress analysis software even gives him an edge in negotiations outside of combat. The Equalizer — when the armor goes on, the gloves come off.
The DLC pack will cost 160 Microsoft Points on Xbox or 160 Bioware Points for the PC version. Will you be getting it and if so let me know what you think of it. In fact, let me know what you think of the Mass Effect 2 DLC in general.
